Anne Frank is such an inspiration to this day. If you have not read her biography you should read all you can about her. She has so many quotes that were taken from her famous diary, now called The Diary of Anne Frank.
Anne Frank and her sister Margot both came down with typhus in the early spring of 1945 and died within a day of each other. The girls were being held at the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp in Germany, where food was scarce, sanitation was awful and disease ran rampant.
Anne Frank was just 15 years old at the time of her death, one of more than 1 million Jewish children who died in the Holocaust.
There are so many quotes out there on my favorite list it is hard to decide which one to share. Here is one that sort of sums up who she was…
I don’t want to have lived in vain like most people. I want to be useful or bring enjoyment to all people, even those I’ve never met. I want to go on living even after my death! ~Anne Frank

I was watching a movie … a very sad story
I read her story many years ago, and when I saw this post I had to check it out. She is truly an inspiration. I would like this book!
Yes you should read her diary. It is incredible
I have read her diary, and then I had to watch the movie. It was like I was reading the book all over again.
I read her diary a while ago. Hard for children in that atmosphere.
It was such a tragic situation and she definitely made the best of it.
Thank you for sharing. I was checking Anna Frank’s Journal
Thanks for reading Branka.
Carol I was even in her house in Amsterdam where they were hiding and living if I did not mind 2 years until they were released
Wow that is awesome, her history is incredible to read.
I did not read the book and watched the movie
I have read her diary. It is very moving to read.
Amazing and incredible for such a young age.
I read her diary, is really touching.
Yes such a tragedy, very sad.
I’ve never read her diary but heard of it a lot … I suppose it’s a good read.
I do have a joke to share … it’s from a joke book I saw in a book store.
A man went into the store and asked: Does diary of Anne Frank have a sequel?
Shop keeper: Nope.
Man: Oh, that’s a pity, she should really write a part 2, it’s good.
:p
She was one of the most incredible grist in history, way beyond her years.
If she were still alive maybe she could write a sequel.
Yeah … but sad she was gone at a young age…
but oh well, at least she had lesser sufferings
Yes you are right and it was such a tragedy for her entire family and so many others.
